I am on day 4 SP and I have found 17 Zinc so far. Mostly in cabinets at the hotel.

 

Zinc is just nice for making vitamins, which drop in good qty. I have 57 zinc at lvl 189. Never used it really.

Scrap brass recipe is in campfire I think but for sure chemistry station. Those materials arent forgable.

 

HA! I'd only recently made a chem station. So I've seen that brass recipe a few times but never clicked it!?

V4.3 recipe loading feels faster to me so far during testing. Those ores zinc and copper are in the ground. I have found plenty near bedrock.

 

I must be misunderstanding. This is the same answer I see posted to the question when I search via google.

 

I have farmed some 'COPPER FRAGMENT' (Orange/red crystal) and some 'ZINC FRAGMENT' but putting it in the forge didn't do anything/none of the forges have 'copper/zinc' counters. I can't grind it either as there's no recipes?

 

I can scrap the copper fragment into 'COPPER' which looks like some copper wire. This item also has no recipes.

 

I've hit tungsten/lead at the bottom of the map, but I get all my brass from picking through garbage and salvaging.

Love the mod.

 

I just wanted to add that I tested a RAM disk to see if there was any impact on recipe load speed. None.

 

The existing tips (use favourites) are really the best workarounds. If you have the item in your inventory, sometimes it's much quicker to click it and then choose recipes from it's menu. Especially something like arrow heads.

 

Still wondering if there's a way to grind zinc/process copper? I assume it's not just added without a purpose and that I merely need to get out and read more recipes.

 

Searching online finds people asking the same question or asking why they don't get the special ores with some pickaxes but never explains how to process the ores.
